The CG from the sale will not be UBTI??
Does the sale of an MLP result in a capital gain or ordinary income for the shareholder?
Usually the sale results in both. Because the return of capital distributions are due to depreciation and other similar deductions claimed by the MLP, those deductions must be recaptured upon the sale – meaning that portion of the gain is taxed as ordinary income, not as a capital gain. Any appreciation in the value of the units since they were purchased would be taxed as a capital gain. However, this is a general rule; the exact amount of ordinary gain to realize upon a sale is calculated by the MLP at the time of the sale. ...
From my SPLA K1, line 19A, distributions $2787..........20V(UBTI)$155.
Thanks Winemaker!
With almost $3k of divs, UBTI was only $155. No tax complications for you. Excellent! How can we get a feel for 2021? Have you seen any history regarding this ratio in past years? Or Steel Partners comments regarding expectations?
Youbet, most K-1 one preferreds generate very little UBTI. But I have heard over and over CEPQ- generates a ton. Most of it is UBTI from everything I read.
I guess it nots the end of the world to go over $1000. But your tax rate will be alot higher and I hear many brokerages charge up to $300 for that processing fee.
I have a small position in CEPQ- (not in IRA), for last year 100% of K-1 Line 1 was reported on Line-20/V, which I understand to be the UBTI.
Bob, You are confirming my memory which I dont trust, lol...I thought it was around 100%... Did you K-1 file on TurboTax yourself?
SCHWAB CHARLES CORP NEW DEP SHS REPSTG 1/40TH NON CUML PERP PFD C 6%, 808513402, in the brokerage account xxxxxxxx, is scheduled to be redeemed on 2021-06-01. A quantity of yyy will be redeemed at $25
...I also like issues like SESCF which is past call and a 2027 mandatory maturity senior note from Seaspan. It traded today at $25.10 and recently went exD. So you arent exposed to a call loss here even if it gets redeemed soon. Its a 7.375% coupon. Seaspan has BBB- senior secured credit rating which is good for a shipper. So this would slot BB ish debt. Milk the cow until its called and move on if it happens.

Hey Mulligan,
I did some research on SESCF and did end up buying some. Then today I got this on a voluntary exchange opportunity to get swap SESCF for similar notes issued by their parent company Atlas... response deadline is 4:30pm on May 3:
What do you think? I'm wondering if the Atlas notes might be less subject to be called... otherwise why would they bother with the voluntary exchange. Guess I'll need to read the prosectus.
Speaking of Seaspan. I have ATCO-G (old SSW-G). It is callable on 6/16/21 at par and currently trading at $26. It goes ex next Wednesday, so let's assume that ~$0.51 of that price is the built in divy. If it is to be called, I'd also pick up another 45 days of accrued interest, so another ~$0.25. So, assuming it is going to be called, selling now I pick up $0.24. Typically I wouldn't bother and would just take the call risk since it is so small, but with the discussions above, I wonder if I should take the free $0.24. Thoughts?
My quick calc says it is 8% yield.... I would take the risk of call to keep an 8% yield...
VEREIT has approximately $373 million of outstanding preferred equity at a rate of 6.7%, which is freely prepayable at par.
It was just announced that Realty Income & Vereit will merge:
https://www.realtyincome.com/invest...-VEREIT-In-All-Stock-Transaction/default.aspx
I own some Realty Income, and some Vereit preferred (not common). I hold both for the income. Vereit has been doing partial redemptions of the preferred so will this be the end of the issue? The only mention of VERPRF that I could find was in an article that Quicken linked to:
Any thoughts from you more experienced & knowledgeable preferred traders out there? It's selling at $25.47 (about 4 months of dividends over par) now, I may just take the money but finding any comparable yield isn't easy.

Mully,
Do you just leave trades like BARCP as a GTC? Or do you set alerts and then pounce on them? Just curious....thanks for digging up these obscure issues!
EDIT: You want to see those 100 to me for $117? Haha
